While hanging effigies of Se. McCain and Gov. Palin might not be not a hate crime in the "classic" sense, it cetainly helps nothing.
The choice to use hateful images in support of ANY candidate in this election is stupid. There has been much too much of this kind of thing going on.
I scorn it from the neo-con right wing hate mongers and I scorn it from this (presumably) left-wing ass.
Wouldn't it be a much better race if we made our choices based on reasoned comparisons of the candidates positions and potentials?
This immature belch of self-expression just detracts from the real issues. Sad. We should be better than this.
